Private Telegraph Hill Oasis

FredRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Phillips place was perfect for a couple. The bed was super cozy, the furniture was very nice, I absolutely loved the ceiling fan, which looks like an old wooden propeller. The outside space is a real treat. Phillip left coffee, welcome beers and waters, which was very nice. fantastic location with lots of great restaurants.

Charming Cottage in Haight-Ashbury Garden

DeniseRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Staying with Rosa felt like visiting family—warm, welcoming, and effortless. From the moment I arrived, she provided a thoughtful introduction to the cottage, along with fantastic recommendations for local spots. The cottage itself is private, secure, and beautifully maintained. The bed is incredibly comfortable, ensuring restful nights, and the bathroom is modern and spotless. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from some of San Francisco’s best restaurants, coffee shops, cafes, and bars, making it easy to explore. But beyond the convenience, what made this stay truly special was Rosa and Syd’s hospitality. Their kindness and warmth made my experience unforgettable, and their incredibly friendly dogs added an extra layer of joy to my visit. I can't wait to plan another trip to San Francisco, and I know exactly where I'll be staying—back with Rosa, Syd, and their wonderful pups.

Victoria’s little cottage was a comfortable and cozy hidden gem! In a great location with some incredibly cute and friendly dogs. We were in town looking for housing as it was a peaceful place to unwind after long days of house hunting! Thank you Victoria for your friendliness and hospitality. We look forward to being Oakland neighbors soon!

Yvette and Mike's Garden Cottage

BarbaraRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Charming, Well Appointed, Cottage Behind the main house, past a pathway strewn with various projects-in-the-works, as well as lush greens, is a delightful hideaway. Inside, a fully equipped kitchen, and dining area, which opens on to a living area with a large TV, and a DVD player with a very nice collection of films. The separate room had a very comfortable bed, excellent lighting, a bureau and closet, and a bathroom with a pleasant shower, and very nice towels. Liberal use of skylights brightens the cottage (but if you want less light the skylights are easily covered, controlled by a convenient wall switch.) The quality of products (kitchen and bathroom) is first rate. Although small, everything just works. There’s not a lot of extra room for anything. One needs some creativity to find space for luggage, or to find desk space for a computer. Totally worth it though. We’ll come again.

Sausalito Garden Stay

Linda And AndrewRating, 5 stars1 week ago
David‘s place was lovely. We really loved the backyard as it was very tranquil and very beautifully landscaped. If it hadn’t been such a windy week, we would have spent lots of time out there. The inside of that place was lovely and comfortable. David was a very nice host and very helpful as well. We would definitely stay here again.

Picturesque Cottage downtown MV

JulieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our stay at Lucy's cottage was wonderfully positive!   Despite being out of town during our stay, Lucy was quick to answer questions.. The cottage is tiny but expertly organized, with an extremely well-appointed bathroom. There is plenty of natural light and fresh air available. There was construction happening nearby but at night the neighborhood was peaceful and quiet. The location is superb, within a couple of walkable blocks down to the Mill Valley Market and The Depot, to which we returned not only for meals (the Avocado Toast is amazing!) but also for the unique community feel The Depot plaza offers.  From there it's just a few blocks up to the entrancing Old Mill Park and the stunning Mill Valley Library. The beautifully forested 1.2 mile walk up to Cascade Falls was well worth the exertion on a hot afternoon. This trip was our first "escape" from responsibilities since 2020 and the entire experience was refreshing and healing.

Modern and Private Cottage with Outdoor Patio

LindaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 night stay at Pat and Stefan’s bungalow. It was appointed with everything I needed - comfy bed, quiet neighborhood, well-stocked kitchen, easy entry at night, and great communication from Pat. I, especially, liked his recommendation of an excellent Thai restaurant within walking distance and a hand-held shower head! I will see them again when my next granddaughter graduates from Berkeley HS🤗

Private Cottage Flat,parking,1blk Transit/Grocery

MyriamRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a wonderful stay! The location was perfect—private and quiet, yet close to all major transit lines. It made it super convenient to drive in, park, and head downtown without hassle. The space is tucked behind the main house with its own entrance, which gave us the privacy we were looking for after busy days in the city. Everything was clean and well-kept. We didn’t use the kitchen, so can’t speak to that, but everything else was great. Keith was a fantastic host—very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. Would definitely stay here again!

MichaelRating, 5 stars6 days ago
The building is a Victorian structure, and the Airbnb is very comfortable and somewhat romantic. The bed is very comfy! The location is great, very close to public transportation. Cesar helped me with my bags checking in and out. I would definitely stay there again. One tip: There is a convenient bus stop a half block from the building that to go up and down the hill. You can get on and off at 15th and Castro, and 17th and Castro.
